[quote:Anonymous Coward 643505:MV8xMDExMDUwXzE1OTIzMTcxX0NEOTI3N0E1] So scientists are just now getting around to "confirming" what has been common knowledge among sailors for hundreds of years. And while scientists have been looking down their noses at sailors, two large ships are going down per week, possibly due to these rogue waves. This is the same mindset of scientist that tells you we are descended from monkeys, and a freak accident due to a big bang billions of years ago. Are you really going to put your faith in some snooty scientists who are clearly blinded by their own preconceptions to see what is staring them in the face. God created our universe, and Jesus is returning soon for his friends. Romans 1 tells us that all of creation, including rogue waves testifies to God's handiwork. Will you put your faith in Jesus, or in man's theories? [/quote]

The shady phenomenon of freak waves as tall as 10 storey buildings has finally been proved, the European Space Agency (Esa) said on Wednesday.
Sailors often whisper of monster waves when ships sink mysteriously but, until now, no one quite believed them.
As part of a project called MaxWave - which was set up to test the rumours - two Esa satellites surveyed the oceans.
During a three week period they detected 10 giant waves, all of which were over 25m (81ft) high.
